Jon Duplantier Signs Minor-League Deal With Phillies
2 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies signed free-agent right-hander Jon Duplantier to a minor-league deal on Friday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training. Although seven of Duplantier's 19 major-league outings in two seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks came as starts, he'll likely be competing for a spot in Philadelphia's Opening Day bullpen this spring. He did not make it to the big leagues in 2022 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he had a 4.80 ERA, 1.52 WHIP, 109 strikeouts and 57 walks in 93 2/3 innings over 34 outings (14 starts) for Triple-A Oklahoma City. If he makes the Opening Day roster, he can be ignored in all fantasy leagues. The 28-year-old has given up 37 earned runs on 58 hits while walking 26 and striking out 46 in 49 2/3 big-league innings.
